Comfort Blanket - 19 Blocks Done

No blogging last weekend as we were in California for my step-daughter’s graduation from her surgical residency program.  It was a good trip, busy, and tiring.  But I have been making fairly steady progress on my Comfort Blanket.  I even caked up all of the remaining mini-skeins and took this with me, but I only managed to knit a few rows.
